Rokas
Description: Creator/Host
Bio: Rokas has been a devoted Aikido student for more than a decade and eventually a full-time instructor with his own Dojo. Yet after stepping into a ring with an MMA fighter, he realized that Aikido is by far not what it was promised to be by his instructor as an efficient form of self-defense.
This moment of disillusionment led Rokas to quit Aikido entirely. He closed his Dojo and moved to the States where he began his combat sports journey by doing an intensive six-month MMA training program with a cage fight at the end. Once the fight was over Rokas continued to document his training on his Martial Arts Journey YouTube channel (600k subscribers), exploring the truth in martial arts and self-defense, regularly training in combat sports himself.
His journey eventually led him to come up with a concept to create a reality show where famous martial artists would pressure test their skills in various self-defense challenges and compete to see who does the best and when he met Jeff Phillips, who has done similar championships with his students, the show came to become a reality.
